New York calling

[Tuesday]

Lady: I'm calling from the New York Post. We'd like to give you a FREE trial period!

Me: I'm from New York. I'm not a fan of the Post.

Lady: Oh! Thank you for your time.

[Today]

Another Lady: This is the Daily News. We'd like to offer you FREE DELIVERY for one year!

Me: I'm not interested.

A.L.: All we ask is fifty cents a week for delivery charges!

Me: Then it isn't actually free, now is it?
